Thank you, Christoph.

I made a mistake while dividing the patch. I will be careful.
I will merge with the code that uses the function and put it on the next patch.

And as you mentioned, it is duplicated with the configuration of bio's data payload.
I will improve this by reflecting your proposal.

Best regards,
Jinyoung.
